Trump Wins North Carolina, Leads Electoral Vote

As the 2024 U.S. election unfolds, Nebraska's polls have closed with significant developments in both state and federal races. U.S. Sen. Deb Fischer is in a close race against independent Dan Osborn, while the Democratic candidate has secured Nebraska's 2nd Congressional District's electoral vote. Nationally, the presidential race between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump is intensely competitive, with focus on pivotal swing states like Arizona and Pennsylvania. The Harris campaign remains optimistic about its chances in the 'blue wall' states of Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin, despite Trump leading in Georgia and North Carolina. Trump's probability of winning has increased to 75% according to New York Times forecasts, but the outcome in the crucial 'blue wall' states remains uncertain. Both campaigns are bracing for final results that may not be clear until the early morning hours.
